The A-line Kiomi

I made this dress for the hot humid days of summer. This is so airy and flowy, that I'll probably be making more of this. The best thing is that when it gets colder, you can just throw some cardigan over it and wear your booties...you're good to go!
The Kiomi dress I sewed from Lotta Jansdotter 'sbook Everyday Style with Converse sneakers

 I think this is only the second or third time I've posted pictures here on my blog with my prescription glasses on. I've been wearing glasses for a long time...since the 90's actually.I'm near-sighted so I have to wear them when I'm driving (usually), going to the movies, etc....
My resting bitch face...sigh....I'm not pissed off. Seriously!
Inspiration from the book
Happy Monday, everyone:)

Ha ha, my younger daughter does a great resting bitch face!

Your glasses suit you. Again my younger daughter needs glasses all the time and she just bought 2 new pairs. One FCUK and the others were Tommy Hillfiger.

You're right, it's really the perfect versatile style for summer, and even to remix throughout the seasons. You look great in this pattern and style Emmy. <3

I love the easy breezy silhouette and the print on the fabric you used is really cute! Cute glasses too Emmy!

So glad your oppa doesn't think I'm a napoon influence ;p We finally found some time and finished marathoning Signal this weekend. Really good especially if you enjoy suspense mysteries! You must watch when it hits Viki.

Ugh, why can't we be neighbours? I probably would bother you day in and day out begging you to sew something for me. LOL!

nice summer dress


I will say the Hound had the least dramatically return ever. Though everyone guessed it years ago. I'm curious to see where his story goes. I know the actor loved being in the show so that's good anyway.

And WTF is going to happen to Arya. She can't die, we didn't go through a whole season of crazy faceless men garbage to leave this unanswered.

I can totally see the inspiration that you drew from to make your dress. I love how loose fitting it is, and the design on it, too. Would be pretty belted as well. And I also have RBF so don't worry -- you're not alone, lol.

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Some analogue love #2

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
